Entanglement, once dismissed by Einstein as an impossible phenomenon but later shown to be possible by Nobel Prize-winning physicists, continues to raise questions. How can we know that a particle has been controlled? How can we know that the measurements of entanglement we think we are detecting are not in fact misleading due to inadequate detectors?

Seeds and fat balls do more than just fill small birds’ stomachs. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that feeding during the wintertime causes birds to be healthier, since they do not have to expend as much energy fighting infections. A small change in body temperature can be fatal for humans. Small birds, meanwhile, lower their body temperature at night by several degrees during th
